Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The hotel was hosting many families with small children when we visited and managed to provide prompt, attentive service despite the number of guests. The location was perfect for accessing the river walk and excellent restaurants.
A rather unprepossessing entrance up an escalator leads to a comfortable hotel with extremely friendly and helpful desk staff.
Comfortable rooms, an excellent breakfast and only a very short walk to the central square
Central location in Turku
Good parking (extra pay)

Average hotel
Its an ok average hotel, nothing fancy. Good price for families with small children.
Bit old and worn. Medioker breakfast. Elevators is kind of a hassle.
Overall good experience. Clean, centrally located, easy access to the parking. Breakfast buffet good. Little issue with the parking payment as I was unable to pay at check out. Now the parking company will send the bill to the car rental company, which might charge additional charges for processing the parking ticket.
Everything in walkingdistance. Works good for the hole family.

Very Good breakfast with lots of option. Rooms ok. Check in can be improved. Needed to fill in paper with same information as done when booking the hotel. Also needed to reserv time for breakfast.
The hotel property as such is quite nice and appears recently renovated. Somewhat awkward placement of the lobby on the 2nd floor. Convenient parking. Good breakfast. Absolutely disgusting dinner buffet that was supposed to be street food themed but which was so bad we would not eat it.
We had a view towards wall in the third floor. Extra bed was too hard for an adult. The air conditioning was not cool enough because the blankets were very thick.

The TV on room was old, small and without smart tv capabilities.
Unwelcomming entrance. Boring hotel With very dull room interior worn down floors. Very basic toiletpaper more like thin sandpapper.
Basic dining facilitets With very basic standard of interior. Sterile room. Not cozy, no character, no soal. I slept. Thats it. Rather 3 star than 4.
Excellent personell though. Very friendly reception staff!
